Default When stock meets custom ( front bumper )
I no longer have forced induction so i did not want to keep my evolution bumper with the big openings. Instead i decided to bring back my fog lights and license plate cover (not shown in pic) but keep the evolution style. I really think this one came out great, let me know what you all think. Please dont mind the driver side headlight. The damn adjustment screw for the cover broke off. Here are some pics:







I will take some better pics soon. I was in a hurry and did not have time to angle the car with better lighting.

What exactly is different? I see the evolution style sides and a stock center, did you put the two bumper covers together or something?

Thanks everybody, 98 trans am: Thats a great idea. I may play around with the splitter idea and see what i can come up with.

Phantomzero, already ahead of you.

Sgt Spuds, all i did was take my E-1 Bumper and filled in the openings with the fog lights holes and L. plate. I had done this before but my original mold was badly damaged.So i was never able to produce the bumper.

looks good and if you mass produce it, T/A owners will finally be able to set themselves apart from other T/A owners....not to mention you could make some coin
